So it's not the schools fault, but California policies.

Thinks like housing, school districting, and sanctuary state.

I don't think it's fair to blame the teachers or education curriculum.

I’m not blaming the teachers for having to work with a lack of resources. And yes, you can place the blame upstream with policies, home prices, or something else. My point is merely that you can’t look at county-wide averages and say that children of all races receive the same education, as the OP was doing.
